Sweet little angel
when I held you in my arms
your halo surrounded my very existence.
A spiritual fear
would soon overtake me,
I soon feared that you would be
amongst the fallen.
The door flew open
and I tried my best to gather
what was left of my dignity
so I turned and walked away.
I was reminded of your severed halo
and I thought I felt your hand reaching out for me
so I said "to hell with my dignity"
I closed the door and locked our souls together
no one will ever know that we're here.
My melodic angel
sing me a song about love and triumph
to mask these feelings of misery and pain
I guess I need you more than you need me.
I'll use you as a tempory high
to escape my eventual and inevitable fate
and you can use me to mend your halo
to feel like you are an anel again.
My mysterious angel
I've built up a tolerance to empty promises
and I'm no longer blissful in my drunken lust hangover
but will I trn the blind eye to the antitode?
My lost angel
you intentionally stray from life's path
so no longer can I follow,
I've no more desire to feel this hollow.
Your halo is clearly broken
and prayers of damnation for me you have spoken,
so I must leave today
and stay true to what is left of me.
My broken belligerent angel,
I pray that you'll find your loving domineer
someone who can save your soul
to catch the blood that you blissfully bled.
Forever I'll wish you great successes
for it doen't effect me either way.
Maybe you've finally cleaned up your messes
but I'm too caught up in my brand new day.
My vengeful angel
you can scream a thousand far cries
d endlessly pray for my ruination
but I continue to get what I deserve.
I fly so high in my limitless sky
my soul unbound and a new purpose found
in ignorance I'll hope that you find where you are going,
but I'll leave you here with the vengeful gods that you pray to.

Author notes
I just listened to the song Watch Over You by Alter Bridge and this is what came from it. As I ascend to the next step on my ladder of success, I must first balance myself on the previous foot holds. Make of that what you will.
Hope you enjoyed,
BC.

In all aspects of life, I believe in the old adage, Follow Your Heart. I did so for this piece.

Thanks or the comment.
You raised an interesting point which I would love for you to elaborate. "Almost a degeeneration of emotion coming down the ladder." That's an interesting take, share with me your thoughts.
Oh, and most importantly, thanks for reading.
